TBH, we all used to know a TON. Now...we pretty much google the top scorers from the top seeds, cause none of us keep up.

But the just is we draft players in a snake draft. You get your players total points scored for the tournament. So, weighing a 20 PPG on a 7 seed vs an 11 PPG on a 2 seed is where it gets fun. 

Winner is total points scored from team. We also have payouts for highest single game and highest single player. I can check, but I think the last few editions have been $50 buy-in.

Welcome. Just as an FYI, you will need to be pretty present Sunday after Selection Show thru Wednesday night. We try and get about 10-12 picks in. 

I am in again.

How many years have we been doing this now?

I think this will be 9 or 10. Started in 2012 or 13.

There are sites that well sell you a cheat sheet for like $5-$10 or you can just look up the top players on the top seeds

I’m in

Sticking with last years payouts...(based on 11 $50 payouts).

• 1st Place $250
• 2nd Place $100
• 3rd Place $50
• Top Scorer (Total) $75
• Top Scorer (Game) $75

If we add 3 more -- 11 regulars, plus Brutus (in), I92 and Justin (maybe) -- I'd probably add $50 to 1st and 2nd and $25 to both scorers.

I’m in Mirg will be too I’m sure

Terry and Goon are in. Thats already 9. So definitely enough to play again this year. Lets go another 1 to 1.5 weeks to allow for sign-ups and then I will draw for the draft to give people a few days to craft the draft strategy/research.

Additionally, I will be courtside working the Milwaukee games. If anyone plans to attend, hit me up and we can meet up for a bit. 

EDIT: Birddog make it 10

Happy to be back with another great Cats team ready to run. 

Same Venmo as last year for the buy-in?

Yes sir.

Anyone have RollBrowns contact? I forget who got him signed up...

I'm also going to finalize the draft order on Wednesday sometime. So everyone can check by EOB wednesday. I'll start a draft thread for it. 

Excited to get this going again. Always a fun time of year.

I also have a payment on Venmo from someone "basketball player/trophy/cat" as the comment - not sure who that was.

If anyone needs my venmo/paypal username DM me. Brutus, I assume you will need that. 

I’m in but can you take PP? Got some money sitting there or could someone mule for me? 

Paid

I’m the unidentified payment, Laley.
